Info

To analyze ABAP code in Kiuwan, source code and information from SAP system need to be exported previously to be analyzed by Kiuwan.

SAP Extractor (SAPEX) for Kiuwan performs these tasks.

NOTE: SAPEX is expected to run in any SAP NetWeaver 7.4+ platform.

Contact Kiuwan Technical Support Kiuwan Support for previous platform versions.
